What BigHub does

BigHub s.r.o. is a Prague-based enterprise AI and data consulting and delivery agency founded in 2016 by Karel Šimánek and Tomáš Hubínek. The firm helps large enterprises operationalize AI from strategy through production deployment, offering a proprietary BigHub AI Platform alongside point solutions for AI claim processing, hybrid AI search, AI shop assistants, voicebots, dynamic pricing and agentic commerce. Its stated delivery model starts with a 4-hour AI Strategy Lab workshop, followed by readiness assessment, proof-of-concept, pilot and production phases, and is supported by official partnerships with Microsoft, Databricks, AWS and Google. The company reports a team of 75+ senior AI strategists, 450+ completed enterprise projects and 100+ global business customers spanning banking and insurance, energy, healthcare, logistics, manufacturing and retail/e-commerce.

The business operates on a hybrid revenue model combining project-based professional services (AI consulting, custom AI solution development, data engineering and EU AI Act compliance services) with recurring platform licensing for the BigHub AI Platform. Pricing is quote-based with no public disclosure; engagements typically run as multi-year contracts and are sourced exclusively through enterprise field sales plus inside sales for mid-market prospects. Distribution is direct, with the notable exception of agentic commerce solutions distributed via the ChatGPT App Marketplace (Košík.cz being the first CEE grocery retailer deployed there). The firm holds ISO/IEC 27001:2022, ISO/IEC 20000-1:2018 and ISO 9001:2015 certifications and has been recognized in the Deloitte Technology Fast 50 (2022) and the VIG Xelerate Audience Award (2026).
